Warner Music, TikTok Dance Into Expanded Licensing Pact

The video discusses Warner Music's expanded licensing agreement with TikTok, which allows the social media platform access to Warner's music repertoire. This deal is expected to create new revenue opportunities for artists and songwriters. TikTok's attempt to limit music usage in Australia led to decreased engagement, highlighting the importance of music on the platform. The deal is mutually beneficial, with Warner gaining more exposure and TikTok aiming to expand its music streaming service. TikTok also launched a program for independent artists, potentially reducing the need for traditional record labels.

In what ways could the partnership between Warner Music and TikTok benefit songwriters and artists?
